   The next morning I went to take the trash out and saw this man. He was a gorgeous muscular man with eyes as green as a forest. He was also taking the trash out but seems like he was working since very early because his black hair was sweaty. After he finish he saw me and smiled showing his white perfect teeth. The strange man went to me and greeted me. "Hello there neighbor, I'm Jack Hooper". Stretching my hand I say: "Melissa Molina" "Nice to meet a lady as beautiful as you, a good way to start this wonderful morning". I gave him a big smile after his words trying to hide my red cheeks. "I guess it is sir" "Please just call me Jack I feel like an old man with the sir thing" we laugh. "Well, I have to go now but I hope to see you later" "Sure, you can call me any time Mrs. Molina" "Just Melissa for you" I reply with the flirtiest tone. "Wow, I feel special. Alright see you then" "Bye Jack". When I enter to the apartment Karelee was waiting for me with a funny smile. "Well how Mr. Sexy man and you are going?" "He just stopped to say hi, nothing else" I said. "Ay chica, I saw the way you looked at him. You look like you wanted to eat him!" we laugh. "Karelee he is hot but come on, I don't even know were my work is jet".

We took the day to prepare ourselves for our journey in the Department of Police and learn the directions to different places, like work, supermarket and, of course, the closes club in town. By the time I went to bed I was thinking of Jack, there's something in him that caught my attention. Is strange how this handsome neighbor live in a place I thought it was closed. It was always dark in there, lonely, soundless. Maybe he just moved also, besides, his accent was different from the American.

When I went to work the boss gave me an office with a lot of papers and cases to work waiting for me. Well, the excitement of a new job has just started, I though. I started to organize everything with my style to know where everything is. I started by last names first, then by town and age. It took me ages to organize everything but I made it before lunch. I was in a small café when I see this familiar face on his way to my table. "Hello there beautiful, can I sit here?" When he was closer I recognize him, is Jack, the neighbor. "Oh yes, there's no problem. Are you always complementing women?" "No, only you" "And why is that?" "Because I noticed how beautiful you are since the first time I saw you." My cheeks started to get a deep pink thanks of his unbelievable words. "Thank you mister beautiful words" we laugh. We drink a coffee together while we talked. "Oh wow, is almost time to work again" I said. "Oh, really? Time past really fast with you." Smiling I say: "I have to go to work, but I hope to see you soon Jack" "Me too Melissa, keep organizing there's a lot of stuff you still have in your desk to organize" And with those words he left, living me with a blank expression. How does he know? Does he work near and saw me or he is just stalking me? On my way to work I keep thinking of what Jack said. Is just weird how he knows what I was doing without me noticing him. When I entered to my office I found a letter on my desk saying:

Dear Melissa, I hope you have had a wonderful day because I have had one just by looking at you. You're absolutely breath taking. Your hair, your lips and that body of yours that makes any man crazy are perfect. I hope to be able to kiss you as soon as possible.

Sincerely, Him
